I think John, our producer, is starting to like our
opening music. His head was doing this thing. Yeah it

I don't watch him dancing is during ling in the
years he does that smug don't know dance.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Yeah it's I was always amazed at that drump plane.
That was Alex van Hale.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Alex van Halen. So Alex van Halen started out on
guitar and Eddie on the drums, and then when when
Alex would leave and go to school or wherever and
they were, Eddie would pick up the guitar and noodle
around and they wound up switching.

Dude, that his final destination. I'm telling you that stuff.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
But and this isn't a Cadillac. This is a The
windshield for jeeps is small.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Yeah, and it's flat, and it's flat. It's flat.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Did it hit your It hits your hood too? Did
I see a dent the hood?
Speaker 2 (02:35):
I hope not. I want to see. I want crutches.
So really great. It destroyed my windshield wiper. It destroyed
my windshield, and I hope it doesn't have a dent
on the hood, but I guess it does. I don't know.
But anyway, that was my day yesterday.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Okay, wait, so so after the thing hits you, did
the car kick? Did the truck and trailer canntinue to go? Oh?
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Yeah? They continue to go. They so I chased them down. Well,
I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt. So I'm
hawking my horn pulled up next to him. I'm doing
the wave over way over. It was a father and son.
They came. They pulled over, and now I'm out on
the expressway in the mercy lane, you know, the side lane,
(03:21):
and so I'm waiting for them to get out because
I'm in a cast one leg and crutches. So I'm like,
I'm waiting for them to get out, and then waiting.
If I get out and I get halfway there, they
can take off and I'm screwed. I'm my crutches right.
So finally I do, and they're pulled pretty close to
the interstate and cars were brushing by. So I went.
(03:42):
I started on my crutches in the wet grass towards
the passenger door, and they got out and I took
a picture of his driver's license, his uh, his car license,
the whole bit, and so hopefully we'll be settling up
on that today. But that sucked.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
I'm trying to look at your hood. Meanwhile.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Yeah, I mean it's having this these crutches such a
pain in he asked. But I want to say thank
you to Robert and Gary Dean. Then an auto glass. Plus,
they're actually just gonna come out to my house Thursday
after the show. They do that they do, you know
for anybody with windshield.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Uh, that's your hood, bro, damn it, that's your hood.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Bro.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
You need a new hood. Well, these simple Body Shop,
well they can pound it out, I guess, and painted.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
The simple bodyshop dot com. I'll be coming to see you.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Did you not notice that I noticed?
Speaker 2 (04:37):
I noticed the scuff. Keep in mind, I'm in the
rain in a cast that's not supposed to get wet crutches.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
I'm just glad you kept her cool.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
You know what. I'm just post ketymine therapy. I think
I did pretty well.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Yeah, well, south end comes out in you, and stuff
like this happens. Southside comes out no instantly. But I
did pretty well yesterday, I'll think considered. I called it Susan.
I said, get me a Barono's pizza. I'm going in
the basement and I'm not leaving. I don't know how
many times one of my friends something would happen. You
could almost come to blow or blows, and the friend
(05:14):
would always go, I'm sorry, man, that's on me. Southside
came out of me, man, not bad.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
So I looked. I saw the scuff, but I thought
it was just something to be buffed out. You get
some rubbing compound. I'll just take it out, you know,
but I'll look at it later this afternoon, all right.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
I didn't say anything when they spent seven and a
half million dollars and when they planned on doing, and
then they did it for this Iroquois pool. Because I'm
not a big it's a lot of money, and it's
something that that neighborhood can only use three months, four
months top right? What is it from now until.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Let's see they open it up on Memorial Day and
it's Labor Day is the last?
Speaker 1 (06:00):
That is three and a half months. Whatever it is,
it just seems like a lot of money that neighborhood
probably needs. Does it need a pool more than it
needs safe streets? I don't know. I don't know what
that neighborhood needs, but it just seems like seven and
a half million dollars was a lot for a pool.
But I went, okay, that's fine, that's what the neighborhood wants.
That's you know.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
That it is.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
And it's not just a pool, man, It is a
really nice facility. It is amazing and it's something that
families in that neighborhood could use. But what happens, only
a couple of idiots can ruin it for everybody. So now,
I don't know if you saw Lky was live there
(06:42):
today and Jackie and I could not believe the security
they need now for people to swim. It's unbelievable. So
they have they are paying I'm sorry, we're paying. Yeah,
we're paying undercover police to be at the pool just
to look like they're swimming and they're just there. They
(07:05):
have not one, but two of those. I described it
last week, the generator with the it looks like a
generator and there's a pole that goes straight up. It's
got four cameras on it, and it has a cop
lights on top, so the red lights and blue lights
are booo all the time, and the cameras are on.
They have two of those and a shot spotter. Wow
for a pool.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Where are we in the world today? If Louis of
Kentucky Now, if I you know, people are like, oh man,
you sent your kid over to Europe and go to
school And I was like, yeah for a semester or
weren't you? Are you kidding me? It was the safe
he said, it was the safest you've ever felt. You're
telling if I if I was a parent in Europe
that said to all my kids going to America to
go to school, way, I'd be lot of my wits.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Yeah we're going to go to the Los Angeles. Listen,
to see Hollywood and then we're gonna, well, go to
New York City.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
I can't do a French accent. I want to do
a French accent and say, well, they have you know,
they have undercover cops at a pool. Stupid, a medic
stupid stepid stupid, they.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Have undercover Oh my gosh, look at that guy.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
They have undercover cops, two of those generator pole camera thingies,
a shot spotter, which I think is the technical term
for that generator pole camera thing.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Is let me fact check you.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Yeah, let me see what the google Oh yeah, you're
right on that. Thank you for that, absolutely, and a
shot spotter. So seven and a half million dollars for
the pool. I don't know what all this is costing.
So so families can can feel at peace to go swimming. Congratulations, Louisville.
It's sad, No, it really is sad. It's sad. It's
(08:46):
it's unbelievable, and it's only it's a couple of idiots
because they've had two shots fired or two shootings around
that pool since it opened. It's ridiculous. It's ridiculous. So
there you go. I mean, I mean literally, the people
that go to the pool are going to go. We
can't have anything nice? Right? Can't everything nice? Man? People
(09:09):
want to ruin it?
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Can't everybody? Oh, here's an idea. Instead of seven million
dollars on a swimming.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Pool seven and a half seven and a.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Half, by everybody in the neighborhood a sprinkler, You run
through the sprinkler.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
You really could, right, you really could draw a circle
like how many people are going to use that pool?
From the like how many people are gonna use the pool?
You could draw a circle aroun the neighborhood and go
everybody gets a car? No, right, everybody gets a car.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Think about that, man, seven million dollars.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Hey, you guys want a swimming pool for seven and
a half million dollars and there's a lot of costs
after that, obviously. Or would everybody in this neighborhood like
a new car? I'll take the car? Or would you
I know that sounds silly, but would.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
You want or would you want wrot iron security doors?
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Right? Right? You know? Give people options? I mean this,
I just I don't. I've never understood the pain so
much for a pool. I get it. It's fun to
do three months a year. It's just for three months
a year.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Obviously they should have went to our friends.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
At Unlimited lands Guard. Just have a pool in your backyard,
don't spend seven and a half million dollars on it.
Go to Unlimited landscapes dot com. I've known the owner
since I was a teenager. Steve Butler is the best.
They have designers and architects and they'll make sure that
backyard is going to be perfect. Unlimited Landscapes dot Com
thank you for that.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
They could have done it for less than seven and
a half a problem easily.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
They should have called Unlimited Landscape. So, uh, Father's Day.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Oh yeah, wonder what Limmy's going to get me?
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Such a joke.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
I bet it's a half of a stuffed elephant.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Jackie said, do you want to do brunch with everybody?
Or like you usually do, just want to be left alone?
Leave me alone. To go to brunch a cost me money.
It costs me a lot of money. And b I
don't want I don't want to. I'm not going to brunch.
That's uh, leave me alone. I just want to do
my own thing.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
That's a nightmare situation and m every mother wants us,
so we do it. But what do you want to
do for a Mother's Day, Well, let's go out to
eat at lunch on Sunday after church.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
I wonder if other people have that same.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Idea, Right, that's my point. So you get up there,
so you know what I started doing, and you're gonna
say I'm a jerk, And quite frankly, I'm a jerk.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
We know that.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
I say, you know what, Susan, go ahead and go
and I'll be there in an hour. And so I'll
sit at home and i'll drop it an hour later
and then sure enough, i'll sit for like ten minutes
party and I'll walk right in there.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
You go, Johnny, your first Father's Day? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (11:56):
How about that?
Speaker 3 (11:57):
This upcoming Sunday. I don't really know what to think
about it. They turned two months old tomorrow. Still enjoy.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Yeah, I enjoy the first one because after that it's
kind of a joke.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
What do you ask for?
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Slip kind of a joke. It is a joke.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
They asked me this this morning on Nick Show and sleep.
Definitely something I would love to have, yeah, and something that,
like if it was there was a material thing I
could have. It's impossible to have this on Father's Day,
but I would love to be able to sit back
and chair a couch and watch college football. But that's
not until you know it's so September.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
Whoa, whoa stop. I happened to have a couple of
games on VHS. I'll slide them over to you. You
just watch those.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Fuck the NFL network has little games. I watched Baltimore
versus Steelers twenty seventeen the other day, so I eventually
got to look, I really, here's the thing. People are like, well,
you get them socks and times and stuff. Here's the thing.
I have a thing with socks, like they can't be
too thick or too thin. I have a I have
(13:00):
to have the perfect size sock like thickness and underwear
like I have to have clean underwear. There are times
I will change my underwear during the day. Okay, yeah,
so I underwear and socks for Father's Day. Done. That's great,
That's what I want. Anyway.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
You say you want to be left alone? What does
that mean for you?
Speaker 1 (13:18):
That means no brunch, no barbecue, no forced interaction, no
get together, no Father's Day you get together, no, because
you don't want to do it anyway. They don't want
to do it anyway. I mean, just backs up my
conversation of men die after fifty ti Tim Wilson fifty two, right,
(13:39):
I mean it happens all the time, men drop dead.
Why do you think when you go to retirement communities
it's all women because men die? How many walks? How
many charity events do you hear about men's issues? Wait minute, crickets?
Can you do the cricket? You know why? No one cares?
(14:01):
No one cares. And I'm not complaining whatever, man, it
is what it is. It's the it's the deal. But
Father's Day compared to Mother's Day, Come on, come.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
On, there's a reason Mother's Day is the most it's
the most difficult time to get it or most difficult
holiday to get into it.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
You cannot. If you start three weeks out, you cannot.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
And that's what every one of them want. Let's go
to Broughtchet Sends.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
You know what I did this year, bro? You know
what I did this year? Bro? What instead of going
to one of these places with the buffet, I went
to the store that sells those you know, cast roles
and all that stuff that they sell it to restaurants.
So this is the stuff that the restaurant would sell you.
I went and bought a couple of those and just
had it at the house.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
You know what I did, what I called my mom
and I said I had COVID and it would be
irresponsible for me to get around her.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
COVID was better than doing the kid card. Yeah, Jackie
might have COVID home.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
That was the only good thing about twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
The only time I've crabbed go to your graduation.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
But how many time you seen me cry? Maybe three
in thirty years? So two two two time high number
two times? Uh and and most of the time I've cried.
And Jackie knows it. When when I get a text
message that something's been canceled and I don't have to
go right and I'll just the one loan tier will
(15:36):
come down my cheek.
Speaker 2 (15:39):

We were into buying, but we're willing to make a deal.
Here we go, Hey, foul us. Wife says to her husband,
I can't believe you what to a prostitute and had relations.
Oh no, very disgustful. Yeah. That's when the husband said, well,

Speaker 1 (18:22):
Valid.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
That's when the wife said, you could have told me
you would have paid me. I'd be willing to do it.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
That is your joke of the day. Yeah, tenthy five.
Back after this on news radio eight forty, WHS.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
A little Saxon, Princes of the night right.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Indeed, come on, I was having a good twenty years ago,
was having a good news.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
To bring the mail to me through the ice and snow.
It's about a train that delivered the mail through all
the ice in the snow. She was the instance of
the night. And here it is right here. Yeah, that's
rock and roll.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Well, chaos continues in downtown Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Ah, you knuckleheads out there, burning city again, yall ye crazy?
Speaker 2 (19:19):
Get it?
Speaker 1 (19:20):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (19:21):
But there's been already been a victim of sorts. Well,
there's been many victims. One of them is the autonomous
taxi service self driving taxis, which I still don't understand.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
But you'll be everywhere, two hundred and fifty thousand people
a riding those a week. In ten years, it'll be
just you'll just get in it.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
What's crazy, because it's just normal. I think it was
like four years ago something like that. Mitch Witten, my cousin,
was out I think Arizona and he got picked up
by one that was four years ago.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Yeah, and ten years, it'll be normal, and they'll be
everywhere and you'll just get in. Won't be a big
deal and then people like us that don't want to talk.
It's perfect.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Uber drivers make hay the sunshines anyway. The autonomous taxi
service Waymo has been forced to suspend service in Los
Angeles because people will use the app to order a car,
only to set it on fire once it arrived. A
total of five way moos self driving fleet cars have
(20:19):
been set of flame, which eventually led to the police.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Okay, I wonder how much do you have a take
on all this or on all of what of California? Listen,
I got to take, so I'm just gonna go.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Okay, let's go here, ladies and gentlemen. Here's Tony's hot
take on the LA riots. I'm sorry, mostly peaceful city burning.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Downing, I understand, and everybody, No one wants National Guard
or Marines sent anywhere. No, no, if we can avoid it,
we that no one wants that, right. But I'm from
a city Louisville, Kentucky, lived here my whole life. Yeah,
I'm from a city where the mayor, which is California's problem.
(21:02):
The mayor and the governor won't protect its own people.
So our mayor, former mayor, not the one we have
now the former mayor. It's it's incredible, just those two
little words, stand down. Police officers in this town watched
as protesters would pee in a bottle and then squirt
(21:24):
it on him. Couldn't do anything, spit in their face.
Can't do anything for rocks, and can't do anything destroying
a memorial to dead police officers. Can't do anything. They
destroyed our city because the mayor said stand down. I
would have loved at the moment to have National Guard
(21:47):
from the Fort Knox roll into downtown.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Now.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
I will tell you a lot of police officers at
that time, and I know one personally. They said he
was going to quit, that he didn't two tours in Iraq.
And this guy was done two tours in Iraq and
he had to come home to get this treatment, and
he had his REGI resignation in his backpack. He went
(22:10):
to work to deliver that to his boss and said,
I love being a cop, but this isn't being a cop.
And that day his sergeant happened to call him to
muster and say, hey, today we take the city back.
And it changed his mind and he stayed a cop.
But as a person that lives in a city where
(22:31):
they let protesters destroy the city. I understand why the
National Guard is being called in. Well, if you are
in the Marines and it's not the first time for La.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Well, if you remember it did get so bad here
that the Kentucky National Guard came in. One of these
violent people shot at the national Guard and they returned fire,
as they should. But then who do you think was
as blame?
Speaker 1 (22:59):
No, we all know that.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
So here's my take on this. On Los Angeles. There
should have been one seple phone calls like this, and
it should have been to Gavin Newsom from Donald Trump
and it said, look, either get your situation under control,
or would you like to cut us to come in.
But here's the problem. If you do this on your
(23:22):
own and you say you don't want the Marines and
you don't want you know, national Guard coming in. Not if,
but when they burn Los Angeles to the ground, and
they will, there'll be no federal funding to help you rebuild,
because we're trying to stop it right now. We're trying
to save the taxpayers billions of dollars of destruction. So
(23:43):
if you elect to not get your city in control
or not allow us to help you get your city
in control. It's not going to fall on the federal taxpayers.
You're going to rebuild Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
We've all forgotten the stories. Like the owner that owned
a business at Fourth and Broadways across from it was
in between Brown, his name Hotel.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
His name's Fadique.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
I'm still he's he owned that for thirty years. And
he said, I've been I've never left this neighborhood when
people told me too, I stayed through the good, bad
and the ugly. I stayed. And they destroyed his business
and took all this stuff and he said, that's it.
He boarded up and he left. He finally left. And
(24:29):
that's the kind of stuff that happened. And it was
and it's hard to understand the stand down. And by
the way, when they went to get the city back,
remember we were playing sound from the police and it
sounded like sound from Fallushah in Iraq to where they
This was tactical and they and there were people with
guns downtown and they were organized to shoot the police.
(24:52):
They shot two police officers. Yeah, oh absolutely, and they
were like they're circling back. It sounded like a marine
division in an infantry marine division in Iraq because they
had tactics because the other ones were counterattacking, and it
was like, this is I couldn't believe this was my hometown.
I was like, I couldn't believe it. And I'm sorry,
(25:13):
I get it. No one wants, no one wants their
own army to go into a city. But at some point,
and again it's not the first time, so stop acting
like this is this is unprecedented. No. No, the Rodney
King Riots they finally called the Marines in same unit too,
by the way, So it's happened before because you got
(25:34):
to get control of it. But what you want to
do is can we learn from our mistakes and go
can we do this before the whole city gets burned
to the ground. And it's crazy because it takes decades
to bounce back. And that's what we're dealing with in Louisville.
And when did that happen twenty twenty.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
Twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Yes, so we're barreling towards twenty six. That's six years later,
and we're still not Eddie Melows closed. It's still closed.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
Here's what we're talking about. Ay Melos a corner piece.
He's a beautiful corner piece of property at fourth and
Muhammad Ali. It's the entrance to our entertainment district, Fourth
Street Live, they say, and it's still sitting vacant.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
And more importantly, it's one of the scenes where Bill
Murray picks up the Karen from the corner right there
in his taxi.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Well, that's opposite it. And because you see Stuart's dry Goods.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Yeah, but that's the that's the four.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
That's right there.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
That's right there where he picks her up. And then
he says he's taking her of the airport, but goes
across the second street and you're just like, hey, wait
a minute, doing wa wait a minute, Winger And that's
where he stops, pull the car over and he throws
the keys in like Ali through his middle in.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
I wanted to take some action photos while I'm on
cough Syrup. So here's what I'm hoping, because yesterday afternoon
or yesterday evening, a bunch of people started making ooh protest.
We want to be like Los Angeles. I pray that
Mark Greenberg, we'll do the right thing. If they start
destroying anything, MPD will come in swift and hard. Because
(27:08):
these officers, I don't think they number one. They didn't
deserve to have all that done to them in twenty twenty.
That was mayor.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
I want to say, is no, no, no, We're going
to stay away from that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
So I'm just hoping. I'm hoping that, uh, and I
think he will. I think he will. I think he
will let LMPD police. And once people start breaking stuff
and we're destroying a CVS fries, hey, you know, and
they're stupid little slogans. What do we want pete? When
do we want it?
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Bet?
Speaker 2 (27:41):
That was That was actual sound little last night.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Little known fact. John Dwight knew what would get me
from zero to one hundred miles an hour on my
to where I would get upset and start to swing
on him.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
And that's it.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
He would go and I would just we would be arguing.
He went to that, I go to don't stop. Stop
And then the other thing is the finger.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
On your forehead.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
He would put his finger on my forehead and I
would try to grab it and he would move it
and I would crut. It was like he had lightning
lightning reflexes and I couldn't catch it. A lot of
times he did that. He was drunk and I would
be sober and still couldn't catch his finger, and then
I would have him thrown out of whatever bar we
were on.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Let's call that Bartk's pup in the bullfrog garden.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
And I just did the finger over. I just went
throw him out. They grabbed him both arms, drugging him
through the bullfrog garden. Yes, and then had a hard
time bottles breaking trying to get him out the back door.
And we thought finally he's out, and then he crawls
back in. Was just his head showing and goes, that's
how we do it on the south Side.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
True story.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
At least you didn't fall down a lot before you
got to your car. They were nice enough to say,
all right, Dwight, go on home.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Hey, before I get to the next story. With that
past story in mind, if you're a person of faith,
pray for are men and women of l MPD. They're
gonna need it. A door dasher wasn't satisfied with his tip,
so he returned with a gun. This happened in Vancouver, Washington. Allegedly,
(29:22):
Anthony Folio vo l I O would that Anthony Folio
said his daughter ordered around one hundred dollars in groceries
through the app. That's when the fifty nine year old
delivery driver, Robert Delahant showed up delivered it, but he
was not he was not happy with the tip that
(29:43):
he received. He didn't do anything that evening. The next morning,
the driver poortedly showed up to the house ticked off
because he didn't receive enough of tip. That's when things
escalated to a scuffle when the homeowner noticed that he
had a gun tucked away both men. Both men ended
up calling nine to one one, but the driver ended
(30:03):
up getting a rest.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
Well that's a pretty serious I mean, come on, upset
about it tip. We've had this topic many times on
this show and a lot of shows. It's just like
tips have gotten out of control. I want to help you,
There's no doubt about it. And I'm Italian, so I
feel like there is an eternal DNA that I have
to tip too much because that's that's what my people do.
(30:24):
Is we tip too much. I mean we tip at funerals.
I mean it's uh, it's what we do. Uh. But
at some point, I'm just I don't want to tip
you because you poured a cup of coffee and I know,
what's the girl's name, we used to be on the show. Hayley, Yes,
that was her name for her name because she's very
selfish and moved to Chicago where her family is and
(30:46):
drug this good Catholic boy from Saint X in Louisville
all the way to Chicago because she's selfish. But she
used to get upset going because she did a barista
before she would do her news job here and I'm like,
I'm sorry, you poured a cup of coffee. Why am
I'm giving you two dollars? I mean what now the
cuple of coffee is like seven dollars or six dollars?
Speaker 3 (31:05):
No. Also, the drive through tipping, yes, no matter if
it's a coffee shop or not. If they're gonna go
a receipt in a pen, no, Actually usually it's not
even they do that. It's like, uh, the digital one.
They're like, we're gonna ask you. It's gonna ask you
a couple of questions. And it's always if you want
to add a tip to the drive through them. It
guilts you into wanting to do it, but I'd never
do it.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
No, Well, let me get this straight. So they ask
you why you're in the drive through.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
Certain places after you give them your call, give.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
You a hard back little thing in a pan. Instead
of just taking your credit card and touching the machine
and it wrings it up. They give you a thing
to sign, and it's like, I've never done this before
because they're looking for tips, and it's just like, what
are you doing? You drive through and you pore a
cup of coffee.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
I thought you meant it was like this to cheese butter.
Would you want to be a tip that I thought
you were?
Speaker 1 (31:58):
Oh no, No.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
If that were the case, I would always tip because
I wouldn't want them spitting all my food.
Speaker 3 (32:05):
Oh you know true, I'd stop going to the drive through.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Though I would too, I would tip that one time,
but I would stop going through the drive.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
Through and some deserve. Look, I want to help you out.
When I eat a restaurant, I do tip. I will
do fifteen percent if it's terrible service. If it's good service,
I'm twenty If I'm by myself, I do twenty five percent.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
We do twenty six percent.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
And there's a breakfast that I love. There's a breakfast
that I love at a certain restaurant, and they when
I come in, they they know because the waitresses will fight.
They're like, oh no, no, that one's mine. I was
mine because I'll do a fifty percent tip on it,
or almost one hundred percent, really because if they get
it right. Because I like my breakfast a certain way.
First roll problems, but I do tip too much different,
(32:48):
you know that's my problem. H chart's too big. I
give too much.
Speaker 2 (32:51):

rate means you keep the equity in your home. You
build the equity in your home. That's your money, don't

get what you want for your house, keep the equity.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
But and this isn't a Cadillac. This is a The

Speaker 2 (02:35):
I hope not. I want to see. I want crutches.
So really great. It destroyed my windshield wiper. It destroyed
my windshield, and I hope it doesn't have a dent
on the hood, but I guess it does. I don't know.
But anyway, that was my day yesterday.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Okay, wait, so so after the thing hits you, did
the car kick? Did the truck and trailer canntinue to go? Oh?
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Yeah? They continue to go. They so I chased them down. Well,
I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt. So I'm
hawking my horn pulled up next to him. I'm doing
the wave over way over. It was a father and son.
They came. They pulled over, and now I'm out on
the expressway in the mercy lane, you know, the side lane,
(03:21):
and so I'm waiting for them to get out because
I'm in a cast one leg and crutches. So I'm like,
I'm waiting for them to get out, and then waiting.
If I get out and I get halfway there, they
can take off and I'm screwed. I'm my crutches right.
So finally I do, and they're pulled pretty close to
the interstate and cars were brushing by. So I went.
(03:42):
I started on my crutches in the wet grass towards
the passenger door, and they got out and I took
a picture of his driver's license, his uh, his car license,
the whole bit, and so hopefully we'll be settling up
on that today. But that sucked.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
I'm trying to look at your hood. Meanwhile.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Yeah, I mean it's having this these crutches such a
pain in he asked. But I want to say thank
you to Robert and Gary Dean. Then an auto glass. Plus,
they're actually just gonna come out to my house Thursday
after the show. They do that they do, you know
for anybody with windshield.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Uh, that's your hood, bro, damn it, that's your hood.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Bro.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
You need a new hood. Well, these simple Body Shop,
well they can pound it out, I guess, and painted.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
The simple bodyshop dot com. I'll be coming to see you.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Did you not notice that I noticed?
Speaker 2 (04:37):
I noticed the scuff. Keep in mind, I'm in the
rain in a cast that's not supposed to get wet crutches.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
I'm just glad you kept her cool.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
You know what. I'm just post ketymine therapy. I think
I did pretty well.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Yeah, well, south end comes out in you, and stuff
like this happens. Southside comes out no instantly. But I
did pretty well yesterday, I'll think considered. I called it Susan.
I said, get me a Barono's pizza. I'm going in
the basement and I'm not leaving. I don't know how
many times one of my friends something would happen. You
could almost come to blow or blows, and the friend
(05:14):
would always go, I'm sorry, man, that's on me. Southside
came out of me, man, not bad.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
So I looked. I saw the scuff, but I thought
it was just something to be buffed out. You get
some rubbing compound. I'll just take it out, you know,
but I'll look at it later this afternoon, all right.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
I didn't say anything when they spent seven and a
half million dollars and when they planned on doing, and
then they did it for this Iroquois pool. Because I'm
not a big it's a lot of money, and it's
something that that neighborhood can only use three months, four
months top right? What is it from now until.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Let's see they open it up on Memorial Day and
it's Labor Day is the last?
Speaker 1 (06:00):
That is three and a half months. Whatever it is,
it just seems like a lot of money that neighborhood
probably needs. Does it need a pool more than it
needs safe streets? I don't know. I don't know what
that neighborhood needs, but it just seems like seven and
a half million dollars was a lot for a pool.
But I went, okay, that's fine, that's what the neighborhood wants.
That's you know.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
That it is.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
And it's not just a pool, man, It is a
really nice facility. It is amazing and it's something that
families in that neighborhood could use. But what happens, only
a couple of idiots can ruin it for everybody. So now,
I don't know if you saw Lky was live there
(06:42):
today and Jackie and I could not believe the security
they need now for people to swim. It's unbelievable. So
they have they are paying I'm sorry, we're paying. Yeah,
we're paying undercover police to be at the pool just
to look like they're swimming and they're just there. They
(07:05):
have not one, but two of those. I described it
last week, the generator with the it looks like a
generator and there's a pole that goes straight up. It's
got four cameras on it, and it has a cop
lights on top, so the red lights and blue lights
are booo all the time, and the cameras are on.
They have two of those and a shot spotter. Wow
for a pool.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Where are we in the world today? If Louis of
Kentucky Now, if I you know, people are like, oh man,
you sent your kid over to Europe and go to
school And I was like, yeah for a semester or
weren't you? Are you kidding me? It was the safe
he said, it was the safest you've ever felt. You're
telling if I if I was a parent in Europe
that said to all my kids going to America to
go to school, way, I'd be lot of my wits.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Yeah we're going to go to the Los Angeles. Listen,
to see Hollywood and then we're gonna, well, go to
New York City.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
I can't do a French accent. I want to do
a French accent and say, well, they have you know,
they have undercover cops at a pool. Stupid, a medic
stupid stepid stupid, they.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Have undercover Oh my gosh, look at that guy.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
They have undercover cops, two of those generator pole camera thingies,
a shot spotter, which I think is the technical term
for that generator pole camera thing.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Is let me fact check you.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Yeah, let me see what the google Oh yeah, you're
right on that. Thank you for that, absolutely, and a
shot spotter. So seven and a half million dollars for
the pool. I don't know what all this is costing.
So so families can can feel at peace to go swimming. Congratulations, Louisville.
It's sad, No, it really is sad. It's sad. It's
(08:46):
it's unbelievable, and it's only it's a couple of idiots
because they've had two shots fired or two shootings around
that pool since it opened. It's ridiculous. It's ridiculous. So
there you go. I mean, I mean literally, the people
that go to the pool are going to go. We
can't have anything nice? Right? Can't everything nice? Man? People
(09:09):
want to ruin it?
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Can't everybody? Oh, here's an idea. Instead of seven million
dollars on a swimming.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Pool seven and a half seven and a.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Half, by everybody in the neighborhood a sprinkler, You run
through the sprinkler.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
You really could, right, you really could draw a circle
like how many people are going to use that pool?
From the like how many people are gonna use the pool?
You could draw a circle aroun the neighborhood and go
everybody gets a car? No, right, everybody gets a car.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Think about that, man, seven million dollars.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Hey, you guys want a swimming pool for seven and
a half million dollars and there's a lot of costs
after that, obviously. Or would everybody in this neighborhood like
a new car? I'll take the car? Or would you
I know that sounds silly, but would.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
You want or would you want wrot iron security doors?
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Right? Right? You know? Give people options? I mean this,
I just I don't. I've never understood the pain so
much for a pool. I get it. It's fun to
do three months a year. It's just for three months
a year.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Obviously they should have went to our friends.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
At Unlimited lands Guard. Just have a pool in your backyard,
don't spend seven and a half million dollars on it.
Go to Unlimited landscapes dot com. I've known the owner
since I was a teenager. Steve Butler is the best.
They have designers and architects and they'll make sure that
backyard is going to be perfect. Unlimited Landscapes dot Com
thank you for that.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
They could have done it for less than seven and
a half a problem easily.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
They should have called Unlimited Landscape. So, uh, Father's Day.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Oh yeah, wonder what Limmy's going to get me?
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Such a joke.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
I bet it's a half of a stuffed elephant.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Jackie said, do you want to do brunch with everybody?
Or like you usually do, just want to be left alone?
Leave me alone. To go to brunch a cost me money.
It costs me a lot of money. And b I
don't want I don't want to. I'm not going to brunch.
That's uh, leave me alone. I just want to do
my own thing.
Speaker 2 (11:12):

so we do it. But what do you want to
do for a Mother's Day, Well, let's go out to
eat at lunch on Sunday after church.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
I wonder if other people have that same.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Idea, Right, that's my point. So you get up there,
so you know what I started doing, and you're gonna
say I'm a jerk, And quite frankly, I'm a jerk.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
We know that.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
I say, you know what, Susan, go ahead and go
and I'll be there in an hour. And so I'll
sit at home and i'll drop it an hour later
and then sure enough, i'll sit for like ten minutes
party and I'll walk right in there.

Slip kind of a joke. It is a joke.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
They asked me this this morning on Nick Show and sleep.
Definitely something I would love to have, yeah, and something that,
like if it was there was a material thing I
could have. It's impossible to have this on Father's Day,
but I would love to be able to sit back
and chair a couch and watch college football. But that's
not until you know it's so September.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
Whoa, whoa stop. I happened to have a couple of
games on VHS. I'll slide them over to you. You
just watch those.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Fuck the NFL network has little games. I watched Baltimore
versus Steelers twenty seventeen the other day, so I eventually
got to look, I really, here's the thing. People are like, well,
you get them socks and times and stuff. Here's the thing.
I have a thing with socks, like they can't be
too thick or too thin. I have a I have
(13:00):
to have the perfect size sock like thickness and underwear
like I have to have clean underwear. There are times
I will change my underwear during the day. Okay, yeah,
so I underwear and socks for Father's Day. Done. That's great,
That's what I want. Anyway.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
You say you want to be left alone? What does
that mean for you?
Speaker 1 (13:18):
That means no brunch, no barbecue, no forced interaction, no
get together, no Father's Day you get together, no, because
you don't want to do it anyway. They don't want
to do it anyway. I mean, just backs up my
conversation of men die after fifty ti Tim Wilson fifty two, right,
(13:39):
I mean it happens all the time, men drop dead.
Why do you think when you go to retirement communities
it's all women because men die? How many walks? How
many charity events do you hear about men's issues? Wait minute, crickets?
Can you do the cricket? You know why? No one cares?
(14:01):
No one cares. And I'm not complaining whatever, man, it
is what it is. It's the it's the deal. But
Father's Day compared to Mother's Day, Come on, come.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
On, there's a reason Mother's Day is the most it's
the most difficult time to get it or most difficult
holiday to get into it.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
You cannot. If you start three weeks out, you cannot.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
And that's what every one of them want. Let's go
to Broughtchet Sends.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
You know what I did this year, bro? You know
what I did this year? Bro? What instead of going
to one of these places with the buffet, I went
to the store that sells those you know, cast roles
and all that stuff that they sell it to restaurants.
So this is the stuff that the restaurant would sell you.
I went and bought a couple of those and just
had it at the house.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
You know what I did, what I called my mom
and I said I had COVID and it would be
irresponsible for me to get around her.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
COVID was better than doing the kid card. Yeah, Jackie
might have COVID home.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
That was the only good thing about twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
The only time I've crabbed go to your graduation.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
But how many time you seen me cry? Maybe three
in thirty years? So two two two time high number
two times? Uh and and most of the time I've cried.
And Jackie knows it. When when I get a text
message that something's been canceled and I don't have to
go right and I'll just the one loan tier will
(15:36):
come down my cheek.
Speaker 2 (15:39):

We were into buying, but we're willing to make a deal.
Here we go, Hey, foul us. Wife says to her husband,
I can't believe you what to a prostitute and had relations.
Oh no, very disgustful. Yeah. That's when the husband said, well,
what do you expect we haven't done anything together for months.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Valid.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
That's when the wife said, you could have told me
you would have paid me. I'd be willing to do it.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
That is your joke of the day. Yeah, tenthy five.
Back after this on news radio eight forty, WHS.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
A little Saxon, Princes of the night right.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Indeed, come on, I was having a good twenty years ago,
was having a good news.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
To bring the mail to me through the ice and snow.
It's about a train that delivered the mail through all
the ice in the snow. She was the instance of
the night. And here it is right here. Yeah, that's
rock and roll.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Well, chaos continues in downtown Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Ah, you knuckleheads out there, burning city again, yall ye crazy?
Speaker 2 (19:19):
Get it?
Speaker 1 (19:20):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (19:21):
But there's been already been a victim of sorts. Well,
there's been many victims. One of them is the autonomous
taxi service self driving taxis, which I still don't understand.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
But you'll be everywhere, two hundred and fifty thousand people
a riding those a week. In ten years, it'll be
just you'll just get in it.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
What's crazy, because it's just normal. I think it was
like four years ago something like that. Mitch Witten, my cousin,
was out I think Arizona and he got picked up
by one that was four years ago.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Yeah, and ten years, it'll be normal, and they'll be
everywhere and you'll just get in. Won't be a big
deal and then people like us that don't want to talk.
It's perfect.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Uber drivers make hay the sunshines anyway. The autonomous taxi
service Waymo has been forced to suspend service in Los
Angeles because people will use the app to order a car,
only to set it on fire once it arrived. A
total of five way moos self driving fleet cars have
(20:19):
been set of flame, which eventually led to the police.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Okay, I wonder how much do you have a take
on all this or on all of what of California? Listen,
I got to take, so I'm just gonna go.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Okay, let's go here, ladies and gentlemen. Here's Tony's hot
take on the LA riots. I'm sorry, mostly peaceful city burning.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Downing, I understand, and everybody, No one wants National Guard
or Marines sent anywhere. No, no, if we can avoid it,
we that no one wants that, right. But I'm from
a city Louisville, Kentucky, lived here my whole life. Yeah,
I'm from a city where the mayor, which is California's problem.
(21:02):
The mayor and the governor won't protect its own people.
So our mayor, former mayor, not the one we have
now the former mayor. It's it's incredible, just those two
little words, stand down. Police officers in this town watched
as protesters would pee in a bottle and then squirt
(21:24):
it on him. Couldn't do anything, spit in their face.
Can't do anything for rocks, and can't do anything destroying
a memorial to dead police officers. Can't do anything. They
destroyed our city because the mayor said stand down. I
would have loved at the moment to have National Guard
(21:47):
from the Fort Knox roll into downtown.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Now.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
I will tell you a lot of police officers at
that time, and I know one personally. They said he
was going to quit, that he didn't two tours in Iraq.
And this guy was done two tours in Iraq and
he had to come home to get this treatment, and
he had his REGI resignation in his backpack. He went
(22:10):
to work to deliver that to his boss and said,
I love being a cop, but this isn't being a cop.
And that day his sergeant happened to call him to
muster and say, hey, today we take the city back.
And it changed his mind and he stayed a cop.
But as a person that lives in a city where
(22:31):
they let protesters destroy the city. I understand why the
National Guard is being called in. Well, if you are
in the Marines and it's not the first time for La.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Well, if you remember it did get so bad here
that the Kentucky National Guard came in. One of these
violent people shot at the national Guard and they returned fire,
as they should. But then who do you think was
as blame?
Speaker 1 (22:59):
No, we all know that.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
So here's my take on this. On Los Angeles. There
should have been one seple phone calls like this, and
it should have been to Gavin Newsom from Donald Trump
and it said, look, either get your situation under control,
or would you like to cut us to come in.
But here's the problem. If you do this on your
(23:22):
own and you say you don't want the Marines and
you don't want you know, national Guard coming in. Not if,
but when they burn Los Angeles to the ground, and
they will, there'll be no federal funding to help you rebuild,
because we're trying to stop it right now. We're trying
to save the taxpayers billions of dollars of destruction. So
(23:43):
if you elect to not get your city in control
or not allow us to help you get your city
in control. It's not going to fall on the federal taxpayers.
You're going to rebuild Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
We've all forgotten the stories. Like the owner that owned
a business at Fourth and Broadways across from it was
in between Brown, his name Hotel.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
His name's Fadique.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
I'm still he's he owned that for thirty years. And
he said, I've been I've never left this neighborhood when
people told me too, I stayed through the good, bad
and the ugly. I stayed. And they destroyed his business
and took all this stuff and he said, that's it.
He boarded up and he left. He finally left. And
(24:29):
that's the kind of stuff that happened. And it was
and it's hard to understand the stand down. And by
the way, when they went to get the city back,
remember we were playing sound from the police and it
sounded like sound from Fallushah in Iraq to where they
This was tactical and they and there were people with
guns downtown and they were organized to shoot the police.
(24:52):
They shot two police officers. Yeah, oh absolutely, and they
were like they're circling back. It sounded like a marine
division in an infantry marine division in Iraq because they
had tactics because the other ones were counterattacking, and it
was like, this is I couldn't believe this was my hometown.
I was like, I couldn't believe it. And I'm sorry,
(25:13):
I get it. No one wants, no one wants their
own army to go into a city. But at some point,
and again it's not the first time, so stop acting
like this is this is unprecedented. No. No, the Rodney
King Riots they finally called the Marines in same unit too,
by the way, So it's happened before because you got
(25:34):
to get control of it. But what you want to
do is can we learn from our mistakes and go
can we do this before the whole city gets burned
to the ground. And it's crazy because it takes decades
to bounce back. And that's what we're dealing with in Louisville.
And when did that happen twenty twenty.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
Twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Yes, so we're barreling towards twenty six. That's six years later,
and we're still not Eddie Melows closed. It's still closed.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
Here's what we're talking about. Ay Melos a corner piece.
He's a beautiful corner piece of property at fourth and
Muhammad Ali. It's the entrance to our entertainment district, Fourth
Street Live, they say, and it's still sitting vacant.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
And more importantly, it's one of the scenes where Bill
Murray picks up the Karen from the corner right there
in his taxi.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Well, that's opposite it. And because you see Stuart's dry Goods.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Yeah, but that's the that's the four.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
That's right there.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
That's right there where he picks her up. And then
he says he's taking her of the airport, but goes
across the second street and you're just like, hey, wait
a minute, doing wa wait a minute, Winger And that's
where he stops, pull the car over and he throws
the keys in like Ali through his middle in.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
I wanted to take some action photos while I'm on
cough Syrup. So here's what I'm hoping, because yesterday afternoon
or yesterday evening, a bunch of people started making ooh protest.
We want to be like Los Angeles. I pray that
Mark Greenberg, we'll do the right thing. If they start
destroying anything, MPD will come in swift and hard. Because
(27:08):
these officers, I don't think they number one. They didn't
deserve to have all that done to them in twenty twenty.
That was mayor.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
I want to say, is no, no, no, We're going
to stay away from that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
So I'm just hoping. I'm hoping that, uh, and I
think he will. I think he will. I think he
will let LMPD police. And once people start breaking stuff
and we're destroying a CVS fries, hey, you know, and
they're stupid little slogans. What do we want pete? When
do we want it?
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Bet?
Speaker 2 (27:41):
That was That was actual sound little last night.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Little known fact. John Dwight knew what would get me
from zero to one hundred miles an hour on my
to where I would get upset and start to swing
on him.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
And that's it.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
He would go and I would just we would be arguing.
He went to that, I go to don't stop. Stop
And then the other thing is the finger.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
On your forehead.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
He would put his finger on my forehead and I
would try to grab it and he would move it
and I would crut. It was like he had lightning
lightning reflexes and I couldn't catch it. A lot of
times he did that. He was drunk and I would
be sober and still couldn't catch his finger, and then
I would have him thrown out of whatever bar we
were on.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Let's call that Bartk's pup in the bullfrog garden.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
And I just did the finger over. I just went
throw him out. They grabbed him both arms, drugging him
through the bullfrog garden. Yes, and then had a hard
time bottles breaking trying to get him out the back door.
And we thought finally he's out, and then he crawls
back in. Was just his head showing and goes, that's
how we do it on the south Side.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
True story.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
At least you didn't fall down a lot before you
got to your car. They were nice enough to say,
all right, Dwight, go on home.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Hey, before I get to the next story. With that
past story in mind, if you're a person of faith,
pray for are men and women of l MPD. They're
gonna need it. A door dasher wasn't satisfied with his tip,
so he returned with a gun. This happened in Vancouver, Washington. Allegedly,
(29:22):
Anthony Folio vo l I O would that Anthony Folio
said his daughter ordered around one hundred dollars in groceries
through the app. That's when the fifty nine year old
delivery driver, Robert Delahant showed up delivered it, but he
was not he was not happy with the tip that
(29:43):
he received. He didn't do anything that evening. The next morning,
the driver poortedly showed up to the house ticked off
because he didn't receive enough of tip. That's when things
escalated to a scuffle when the homeowner noticed that he
had a gun tucked away both men. Both men ended
up calling nine to one one, but the driver ended
(30:03):
up getting a rest.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
Well that's a pretty serious I mean, come on, upset
about it tip. We've had this topic many times on
this show and a lot of shows. It's just like
tips have gotten out of control. I want to help you,
There's no doubt about it. And I'm Italian, so I
feel like there is an eternal DNA that I have
to tip too much because that's that's what my people do.
(30:24):
Is we tip too much. I mean we tip at funerals.
I mean it's uh, it's what we do. Uh. But
at some point, I'm just I don't want to tip
you because you poured a cup of coffee and I know,
what's the girl's name, we used to be on the show. Hayley, Yes,
that was her name for her name because she's very
selfish and moved to Chicago where her family is and
(30:46):
drug this good Catholic boy from Saint X in Louisville
all the way to Chicago because she's selfish. But she
used to get upset going because she did a barista
before she would do her news job here and I'm like,
I'm sorry, you poured a cup of coffee. Why am
I'm giving you two dollars? I mean what now the
cuple of coffee is like seven dollars or six dollars?
Speaker 3 (31:05):
No. Also, the drive through tipping, yes, no matter if
it's a coffee shop or not. If they're gonna go
a receipt in a pen, no, Actually usually it's not
even they do that. It's like, uh, the digital one.
They're like, we're gonna ask you. It's gonna ask you
a couple of questions. And it's always if you want
to add a tip to the drive through them. It
guilts you into wanting to do it, but I'd never
do it.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
No, Well, let me get this straight. So they ask
you why you're in the drive through.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
Certain places after you give them your call, give.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
You a hard back little thing in a pan. Instead
of just taking your credit card and touching the machine
and it wrings it up. They give you a thing
to sign, and it's like, I've never done this before
because they're looking for tips, and it's just like, what
are you doing? You drive through and you pore a
cup of coffee.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
I thought you meant it was like this to cheese butter.
Would you want to be a tip that I thought
you were?
Speaker 1 (31:58):
Oh no, No.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
If that were the case, I would always tip because
I wouldn't want them spitting all my food.
Speaker 3 (32:05):
Oh you know true, I'd stop going to the drive through.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Though I would too, I would tip that one time,
but I would stop going through the drive.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
Through and some deserve. Look, I want to help you out.
When I eat a restaurant, I do tip. I will
do fifteen percent if it's terrible service. If it's good service,
I'm twenty If I'm by myself, I do twenty five percent.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
We do twenty six percent.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
And there's a breakfast that I love. There's a breakfast
that I love at a certain restaurant, and they when
I come in, they they know because the waitresses will fight.
They're like, oh no, no, that one's mine. I was
mine because I'll do a fifty percent tip on it,
or almost one hundred percent, really because if they get
it right. Because I like my breakfast a certain way.
First roll problems, but I do tip too much different,
(32:48):
you know that's my problem. H chart's too big. I
give too much.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
From Darlene Witten, she says, the night you were born
May twenty seventh, nineteen sixty eight, riots were so terrible
